Alecto paced the war room. Unlike what propaganda thought up and shared by the Valkyries might say, furies were an organised lot. Humans, by contrast, were messy. Which was why the screens were all glitching as new events changed the futures predicted by the Fates.
A war, a true war among the races, loomed on the horizon. This was even more important than Ragnarok, the end of existence the Valkyries always prepared for.
